Cookie Recipe for 1 – Bigger Bolder Baking
These cookies are the perfect amount for a single serving. I am a big fan of single-serving recipes, just like my selection of mug cakes. So if you are in a rush, or want just one cookie after school or work, then this is a great recipe for you.
I was inspired to make these from some of my favorite blogs Sally’s Baking Addiction and Cooking Classy
A Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie
Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe for 1 – Bigger Bolder Baking
This cookie is so lovely because it has that gooey, almost underdone mildde with crispy edges, which equals cookie perfection!
Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 18 mins
Total Time 23 mins
Author: Adapted from www.cookingclassy.com
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp (1oz/30g) butter
- 3 Tbsp light-brown sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tbsp whisked egg*
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/8 tsp baking soda (this is a ½ of a ¼ tsp)
- 4 tbsp chocolate chips (I use dark chocolate)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350oF (180oC).
Place butter in a microwave safe mixing bowl and melt
To the melted butter, add brown sugar, salt, 1 tbsp egg, the vanilla, flour and baking soda. Stir with a spoon until well combined, about 20 - 30 seconds.
Mix in the chocolate chips.
Shape dough into a 3-inch disk on parchment paper lined baking sheet
Bake in preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, until cookie is golden. You don’t want to over bake your cookie so it stays soft and doughie in the middle.
Serve warm or allow to cool on a wire rack then store in an airtight container.
Recipe Notes
*To get 1 Tbsp egg, crack egg into a small bowl, whisk until yolk and white are well blended, then measure out 1 Tbsp.
*If you don’t have brown sugar you can use white
